THE SUGAR MARKET.
Two Cargoes of Hawaiian Sugar Fail TO
Affect Prices.

tcopyrigi, 1887, by tie California associated Press
NEW YORK, August Goth. Especial. THE
Commercial Bulletin says: The arrival yester-
day of two ships, the st. Francis and +. d. SUIT
ton, from San Francisco, loaded with Sandwich
Island sugars representing total of 5000 tons,
was expected to create some furry in the mar
ket. accompanied with slight decline in prices,
but the cargoes were placed as rapidly as they
arrived without apparent effect upon the mar
ket. In the language of prominent members of
the trade, the two cargoes in question were dis
posed of as quickly and with just rs little effect
upon the market as would have been the first
basket of peaches at the opening of the fruit
season. 1t is believed by sugar dealers
in this city that the conditions surrounding
the market are of nature to almost guarantee
a strong and steady advance in prices, and that
the long-continued depression so intimately
associated with the market is about to terminate
in an upward movement.
THE supply for the presentIyear in all grades
of sugars is computed at fully 10000 tons less
than the yield of the previous year. The Cuban
crops are reported short, the German and
French crops are poor, and altogether it is be-
lieyed by the majority of those in commercial
interests that the supply.will be taxed to the ut
most to meet the demand. A prominent feature
of the American sugar market is its entire free
dom from speculation"

NOT TALKING SECRETS.
Bonanza Mackay Talks Plainly to "a
RepOrter.


NEW YORK, August 26th.-The Herald has this
from san Francisco: To caller at the Nevada
Bank to-day John W. Mackay said "As to
what you call the wheat deal, Mr.. Flood and
myself have made up our minds that there is a
good thing in wheat to be sure, and we mean 10
carry every bushel OF it until the English mill
ers want it, We will meet the consumptiye de-
mand and no other. AS to the losses which the
papers and gossips say the bank has made,
they don't know what they are talking about
1t is hardly likely Mr.. Flood or myself have
lived SO long in the world without making
enemies, and lately they seemed to think
they had chance at us. One sends letters adj
yertising us and lying about US to the New York
Tribune, which credits them to its special cor
respondent. Whitelaw Reid, the editor, is in
California, and knows these stories are not true
l suppose he thinks they will be useful to some
of his friends, but if Flood or myself gave atten
ton to all the public does that smart and snap at
our heels we would have little time for other
business"
A reporter who had been standing by and
taking down Mr. Mackay's language asked
leave to print it.
You may print what you like, young man.
but see that you print no lies, lie the New York
Tribune. l am not talking secrets"

can exploded, covering her with the burning
fluid. In her fright and agony she ran into and
down Main street half block. with the flames
streaming behind her, before assistance was

was found that, with the exception of that on
the toes, the skin was burned from the entire
body. In places on the neck and under the
corset the flesh was burned also. The girl stood
the torture with great heroism, conyersing
freely with her father and others. The fact that
the house caught fire, resulting in slight dam
age, seemed 10 trouble her more than her own
injuries. The physician thinks she inhaled the
